Review
Drugs for dyslipidaemia: the legacy effect of the Scandinavian Simvastatin Survival Study (4S).
Since the discovery of statins and the Scandinavian Simvastatin Survival Study (4S) results three decades ago, remarkable advances have been made in the treatment of dyslipidaemia, a major risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Safe and effective statins remain the cornerstone of therapeutic approach for this indication, including for children with genetic dyslipidaemia, and are one of the most widely prescribed drugs in the world. ⋯ The use of ezetimibe to further decrease plasma LDL cholesterol and the targeting of other atherogenic lipoproteins, such as triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and lipoprotein(a), are likely to be required to further reduce atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease events. Drugs directed at these lipoproteins, including gene silencing and editing methods that durably suppress the production of proteins, such as PCSK9 and ANGPTL3, open novel therapeutic options to further reduce the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study Comparative Study
Glofitamab plus gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (GemOx) versus rituximab-GemOx for relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (STARGLO): a global phase 3, randomised, open-label trial.
Glofitamab monotherapy induces durable remission in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma after two or more previous therapies, but has not previously been assessed as a second-line therapy. We investigated the efficacy and safety of glofitamab plus gemcitabine-oxaliplatin (Glofit-GemOx) versus rituximab (R)-GemOx in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. ⋯ F Hoffmann-La Roche.
